House name	Description
Vermount	Also known as Munine or Moneen, the house was described as 'in ruins' on the Ordnance Survey 6 inch map (1932), following its burning in 1923. Extensive outbuildings are still in use and part of the yard is now a residence. McHale writes that this was, in fact, the original house. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests that the family occupied this building while Vermont House was being constructed. In 1786, Wilson refers to a house called "Munnine" as a seat of Mr. French.
Mounthazel	Occupied by Catherine Mahon at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the house was valued at £45. Mounthazel may be the property referred to by Wilson in 1786 as Bunrea, the seat of Mr. Davies. Demolished in 1945 though traces of the walled garden remain.
Mountbernard	Home of Bernard Browne in the 1830s. Occupied by James C. [Leslie] Foster at the time of Griffith's Valuation, leasing from Andrew Browne, when the house was valued at £35 Foster was married to Henrietta, daughter of Sir Ross Mahon of Castlegar. The house is now in ruins.
Cross House	Built in the early 19th century and the home of the Evans family afterwards. The walls of the house and extensive farm buildings still remain alongside some modern farm buildings.
Corrandoo House	This property was granted to the ffrenches in the late 17th century in lieu of Monivea Occupied by the Reverend Mr Marsh in the 1770s sand 1780s, by M. Dowdall in the 1830s and Thomas Kenny at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £10. It is no longer extant.
Tiaquin	At the time of the Burke sale in 1851 the house was described as an 'old fashioned cottage style' type of building. A gable end of the house still stands with the nearby farm buildings still in use.
Creeraun	At the time of Griffith's Valuation the townland was held by Margaret O'Kelly and the house and some land was occupied by Anthony O'Kelly. In the sale particulars of Creeraun in 1889 the house is marked on the map as 'in ruins'.
